3 DWI Study for the Harris County Criminal Courts at Law Overview of the Report This study was designed to profile first-time DWI defendants from The base study group consists of 5,616 individuals whose first-ever criminal case in Harris County (other than a Class C misdemeanor) was a DWI misdemeanor charge filed in 2004 that resulted in a judgment. Of these, 763 have returned to the Harris County criminal justice system as of July 23, Multiple charges from the same day were considered as one occurrence. Any future charges that resulted in an acquittal or that have not reached a judgment were eliminated from the study. The source data is from the Harris County Justice Information Management System (JIMS). This study examines the re-appearance rate for these individuals within the Harris County Criminal Courts at Law and the Harris County District Courts Trying Criminal Cases. The 2004 profile describes the group according to the age of the defendants, and it also describes the kind of judgments dispensed for the group.
